I acquired this jig saw 15-20 years ago. It came out of a physical rehabilitation workshop, they had 2 of these. When I first dragged it home, it was peddle powered, but I converted it to motor driven. The length of the machine was probably another 2-3 feet longer when it had the peddles and leather seat. I wish I had taken a picture when it had the peddles, I thought back then it was a custom re-fab for the rehab workshop. I was surprised when I looked up the name and someone else remembers their dad having the same peddle powered saw. I'm not sure of the age.

Comments: old sprocket for peddle power still on shaft. There was also a flywheel, but I removed it when I added the pulley.
